I'm a bad person. I totally forgot about ESPN Zone. Thanks for reminding me slotofkit! ESPN Zone is also my favorite, for the sports games, food and vidoe games. MoCap Boxing is so much fun with a group of people!

My fav is Rainforest, for breakfast. I wasn't that impressed with their later menu but the breakfest was really good.

Awwww. I like the later menu stuff better. The country fried chicken is great, and the asian chicken salad has the best salad dressing. If you've not ever had those, I highly, highly suggest 'em!

I feel I must mention that your profile quote is excellent slotofkit. That's my wife's favorite part of Muppet Vision 3D. She always laughs every time Sam Eagle gives that gem of a description.

Thanks danimal! It's my brother and my favorite quote too. I'm glad somebody else appreciates it. I'll end this part of the tangent with this thought: the quote works to describe It's a Small World. It makes the ride humorous.

Unfortunately the only places I had a chance to try at DTD were Rainforest and La Brea Bakery. I would've liked to have gone to Tortilla Jo's or Catal, but Rainforest is a favorite of many of my family members.

Rainforest Cafe when you have little ones this is a great and exciting place for them to eat. The food is pretty good as well.

Ugh. Unless they're easily frightened. I'd never heard my six year old cousin scream more than when the lights dimmed, the thunder struck, and the gorilla next to us started grunting and pounding his chest.

Lunch ended early that day.

We once took my cousin when she was quite a bit younger and she didn't scream much, but she was definitely frightened. She hunched down close to being under the table and stuck close to her parents.

She was also scared of It's a Small World. Smart kid.

I wouldn't really consider it a favorite, but everytime we go to Disneyland for our family vacations, we always go to Rainforest Cafe @ Downtown Disney for dinner at least once. We only do it for our kids (now aged 10 and 4). They love the atmosphere, and seem to enjoy the food. When it is just my wife and I, we never seem to eat in Downtown disney, but off site.

I'm with you LOL Small World can be frightening. They need a drop placed inside the ride and change songs to something darker for an almost vertical hill at the end! :twisted:

My Favorite resturaunt that we go to that isnt dinsey related would be In and out burger. we tend to go there towards the middle of the day when we want to eat cheap. because we all know that even the pizza port can be pricy!

I love the Dining room at Wolfgang Pucks. Its relaxing and quiet plus the service and food are always top notch.
